  1. SbW Steer by Wire testing day review (by a steering systems engineer)

    Caveat: I'll be keeping this post a little vague to preserve some anonymity but I'm sure if you want to put energy into snooping you can discover specific details. I'm an embedded software engineer at one of the largest OEM parts provider that engineers and manufactures steering systems for...
  2. Michigan Tesla Owners Summer Meetup

    I know there are a good number of Cybertruck owners in Michigan now. Anyone going to the Tesla Owners Meetup this weekend? I'm contemplating going, but it's almost 3 hours away from me and looks to just be some speakers and Youtubers. Not sure it's worth the time.
  3. Ghost Cybertruck windshield wiper issue! ongoing 5 months no fix!

    Silly question but when they replaced the wiper, did they replace the wiper motor or just the arm? Old wiper motors had 4 or 5 connectors and operate pretty simply simply with discrete electronics for speed control. I'm not sure if Tesla wiper motors that use the camera for rain sensing are...
  4. All Foundation Series owners will receive $2,500 voucher for Tesla Shop (to purchase Powershare Home Backup Equipment or other products)

    Interesting. I'll have to experiment with the various connections I have and report back. My garage setup is a Gen 1 wall connector on a 100A circuit, and a Nema 14-50 plug on a 50A circuit. I used the Gen 1 mobile connector that came with my '16 Model X to charge the Cybertruck with no...
  5. All Foundation Series owners will receive $2,500 voucher for Tesla Shop (to purchase Powershare Home Backup Equipment or other products)

    So if I want to be able to charge another Tesla, I'll need to have the mobile adapter that came with the Cybertruck? The normal mobile connectors that come with all other Tesla vehicles won't charge when plugged into the Cybertruck bed outlets? If this is the case, I wonder how this applies to...
  6. Trade-in vs. CarMax vs. Carvana

    I sold my '16 Model X :cry: to Carvana when I got my Truck. It was really easy to do, only requiring the title (mine was clear) and license. Payment was handled ACH via Plaid and there was a $200 pick up fee. Carvana gave me ~$20k for my 8 year old, near 100k mile Model X while Tesla was only...
  7. Detroit Cybertruckers

    I was driving north on Lapeer (M-24) in Lake Orion/ Oxford yesterday in my Cybertruck and saw another one coming in the opposite direction. Was it anyone here?
  8. Michigan waiting room

    Nice! What does your quote look like and how extensive will the changes to your electrical system be?
  9. CT delivery

    When I received a request for proof of insurance and final payment in the app, I was able to click into the step for the insurance and see a VIN. The app still showed my RN on the main screen, but the VIN was available on the insurance submission screen.
  10. Michigan waiting room

    I haven't heard anything about powershare since the email confirming eligibility. I've heard The Green Panel being bandied about for installation, but haven't heard from them either. Would be nice to know considering all these storms we've been seeing lately.
  11. How to open the passager doors while sitting in the driver seat?

    It would be nice if they software implemented opening doors from the screen, but they would have to change the door popper behavior too. The door popper will stay extended until the door is manually opened a bit, before retracting. Two things I miss from my Model X are the auto door controls...
  12. Wiper blade issue - blurry streak

    Huh. Mine is inside the arm shroud.
  13. Tonneau Cover Weather Seals In between SLATS coming undone

    Model X ppl have been using Gummi Pflege Stift on window and falcon wing door seals with good results. Maybe it will also work well with the tonneau.
  14. Took delivery today... build quality (only can speak of cosmetic now) surprisedly good

    I took delivery of my Beast yesterday. Checked all door, window, tonneau seals. All well formed with no kinks and overlaps. Both tow hook covers present. Checked functionality of wiper, fitment of plastic sail covers, correct door hinges. No rail dust. Tailgate lines up well with side...
  15. Child Car Seat (Rear and Forward Facing) Fit Check âś…âś…

    I've been out of the car seat market for a while so I'm not sure how prevalent rigid latch is. We bought these seats almost 8 years ago and are using them again for the new kid. I find rigid latch a little easier to install since you don't have to do the old "press and cinch" maneuver.
  16. Child Car Seat (Rear and Forward Facing) Fit Check âś…âś…

    Just got my truck yesterday and went to put in the Clek Foonf. Fits fine, but heads up, the rigid latch on the Foonf won't work. The geometry of the seat back pushes the angle of the car seat in a way such that the rigid latch bars can't angle down enough to engage the latch connectors at the...
  17. AWD Model vs Cyberbeast

    I just took delivery of my Beast. Previously drove a '16 Model X P90D with 0-60 in the 3.8s range. My wife has a '21 Model Y performance at 3.5s. You get accustomed to the acceleration, but the Beast made both our stomachs drop from the acceleration. It's new all over again. It's...
